consciously created pieces
Each heirloom-worthy handbag is designed to be a signature piece not only on your wedding day, but a signature piece for any occasion.
Creating classic handbags in limited quantities, slows the fashion cycle, which in turn helps to minimize waste and reduce overproduction. Creating a handbag to last the test of time to be passed on to the next generation is the heart and soul of the brand.
Meet the creative force behind the brand.
Maria Caruso Martin founder and creative director began her creative career over 20 years ago as an interior designer. Her love of both fashion and interior design made the transition from interior designer to fashion designer a natural progression.
Her Italian roots and love affair with Italy is where she fell in love with the magical city of Venice and the romantic gothic quatrefoil that is the signature for the brand. With its many interpretations - luck, faith and love among them - the quatrefoil now adorns each handbag in both style and sentiment.
Once featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show for her personal wedding style, Maria now shares her signature sophisticated style with other brides and fashionable women looking for bespoke luxury handbags.

Paying it forward.
We are passionate about giving back to organizations that are near and dear to our heart. Creating a brand that gives back to the community is our way of paying it forward. A portion of proceeds from our sales will be donated to our favorite charities.
charities we support
Every year, 12 million girls are married before they turn 18. That’s one girl married every 3 seconds, robbed of her future and put at risk of violence, ill health, and trapped in poverty. But change is possible. The Mrs. Clutch will donate $10 to VOW from the purchase of your clutch, to end child marriage. Every girl has the right to a safe and healthy future, including the right to choose if, when, and whom to marry.
